the dalmatian coast

paths along the rugged coast, todays southern breeze and eastern strife making my still standing something like swinging in the weeps or standing from path and into the adriatic from the adriatic and deep into this sea paths along the rugged coast todays southern breeze and eastern strife oh dalmatian coast guide me in these waters are trouble now trouble now trouble now trouble now

flipping through my atlas the dalmatian coast harbouring the intensity of the adriatic s waters got me thinking about similar themes i have written about before.. to do with water and the dependency life has always had on water.. and yet causing such horrific tragedies. this part of europe is certainly familiar with tragedy, ranging from sea ambushes to civil war. lucky a pencil was close by. I hope to take this poem and expand later, but for now this is all I have. wz.
